samy kamkar
Samy Kamkar demonstrates OpenSesame, a device that opens many fixed-code garage doors in seconds by exploiting a newly found attack, built around a Mattel toy. The video explains the attack and which brands are affected.
HN people cite it as a memorable example of a clever low-cost hardware hack and as a reason to admire Kamkar's work.
